Ive heard his younger brother is quite talented as well
Timothy Fosu Mensah
- Thread starter KM
- Start date
He has captained Ajax at his youth level so I think he is yeah. He is a CB, very strong for his age.
Yeah I think he played against United in a couple of the under age tournaments last year

Can't believe nobody noticed this. He's a massive talent and we've got him!

Tbf there would be more excitement if we had gotten Odegaard
Fantastic news. Looking forward to watching him progress
form what i saw on youtube, kid has some real potential. Happy that he is here.
link?
Very happy about that
first page.
Man Utd's identity is broken. They don't believe in youth anymore.
Exactly this type of signing will go unnoticed to the naysayers, but it shows we haven't just forgotten about the youth system overnight.
Solid name. That's about 60% of the work done en route to being a top player.
He has got best name in the world after Radamel Falcao Garcia and me. Welcome you beast!
Great news. Let's hope he fulfills his potential.
That is one badass name
cheers
Looks a better prospect than van Velzen anyway. Keep developing him and keep him away from Raiola he could make it here
Brilliant isn't it!?Let's hope he makes a claim for the first team in a few years time.
He looks a big powerful athlete with good technique and speed, I think he is the type that will progress through the youth teams quickly.
Doubt it....Identity broken etc etc
It winds me up that crap....He looks a big lad
Just out of interest Andy Mitten posted a article yesterday saying United wanted to bring one more transfer after Falcao might have been this one.
We haven't lost our identity. We needed a few ready made stars because we had some very poor transfer windows recently. From now on we will go back to the way we used to do things.
Good name, he'll do for me.
Good news and name!
I approve of this young defender I didn't know existed 5 minutes ago.
This
He's well skinnyHe's a bit of a tank.
He's an Ajax lad, so van Gaal is likely to approve.
Such a tank, get in!
Havent you heard? its all pr bollocks, he wont ever play we will just go and sign Philipe mexes and Pepe.
Nice. Was hoping we'd bring this lad in over the summer. Will be exciting to see how he does.
Not a bloody clue who he is.
Hope he becomes as good as you guys seem to rate his potential

Agreed. This is why Phil Jones will never make the big time.
The club will make a fortune printing his name on shirts in the Megastore. Excellent investment.
I've never played the Dutch edition.But you're a Pokemon expert
The Academy system has been dead for quite some time for the wealthy PL teams. It's just not a realistic way to acquire talent because there are way too many kids who would rather play 1st team football in Belgium/Holland rather than come up through the academies and play U18/U21 games.
Both the Jupiler league and Eredivise teams are comprised mostly of u21 players with some older players mixed in ...
One of problems in English football is that the English kids aren't going abroad and playing in the Belgian, Dutch, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, and Russian Leagues, but rather are opting to stay at the academies.
Meanwhile the non-English kids pick up first division football, Europa League and Champions League while the English kids are stuck playing Wolves U21 and Stoke U21.
But. But...I thought we shut down our academy....
